Several months ago some nice person at Sun offered to help me with my
uuxqt problems on a Sun-100. Unfortunetly, I lost their address...

Well, I need to fix it now.

I have a BSD4.2 Vax uucping with the Sun-100 V1.3 software. The uucp
copies work fine, the files all transfered, the connection is terminated
and then uuxqt is fired up.

No matter what I do, uuxqt refuses to execute any command. It returns
mail to the vax with something like "uucp XQT DENIED (rmail )". With a
similar message in the log.

I run the uuxqt (as root, in /usr/lib/uucp) with -x9 and watch, everything
look cool, it prints the "fout - .... fin -.... cmd -..." message and
then "bad command". (note: if you "strings" uuxqt, the string is "bad
command %s"... humm...) It looks to me like it tried to fork the command
and it failed for some reason... (just a guess)

I'm an accomplished uucp hack, but without source, I can go no further...
(ps: I've never been able to get any command uuxqt'd with this system,
not even rmail works)
